Hit head on a rocking chair 4 days ago and been having pulses of pain where the head was hit face was really red yesterday and pain happened every so often what should i do?

Answer 1

I have this same problem! I hit the top of my head 4 days ago on the door frame of the emergency exit of a school bus while getting on (stood up too soon). I didn't black out or loose consciousness, but I got a headache a few hours later. I just assumed it was because I was drinking beer in the sun and was starting my hangover/dehydrated. I went to the doctor because I was scared of internal bleeding and she said everything was fine. Tonight especially I have been getting these strange feelings on and off where I hit my head! It's not painful like you say yours are, but still worrisome. I don't think that you have anything to worry about. My doctor told me that the only cause for concern would be if you were vomiting, the headache was 'the worst you've experienced' and won't go away, etc. I think it is just part of the healing process. My doctor also said that after hitting your head, it's normal for your head to hurt for 7-10 days after. I don't think the red face is a cause for concern either, I can't see it relating to you hitting your head.
